1829 N-6 R7 (as a Bronzed Proof) PCGS graded P
1829 N-6 R7 (as a Bronzed Proof) PCGS graded PR65 Bronzed. PCGS graded Proof 65. Dark reddish chocolate and steel. The fields are smooth and slightly reflective, but the mirrors are not nearly as deep on the bronzed version as they are on the "normal" proofs. A small patch of microscopic carbon at RT in LIBERTY and a tiny struck-through line in the field up from the tip of the coronet (caused by a piece of thread or fine wire on the die) are the best identifying marks. The reverse is rotated 45 degrees counterclockwise from a normal head-to-foot die orientation. Listed by Denis Loring in his census of proof large cents as Proof-63 and CC#2 of the bronzed version. Our grade is Proof-63. PCGS Population 1; none finer. Estimated Value $20,000-UP. Ex M. A. Brown, S. H. & H. Chapman 4/16/1897:876-W. B. Wetmore, S. H. & H. Chapman 6/27/1906:631-Henry A.
